Kate is keen to implement her wealth of experience to the WorkwithYork offering to enable the business to generate revenue from new diverse and previously un-tapped sectors.

Based in York, Kate is a lover of all things ‘outdoors’ and can most often be found up a ‘Wainwright’ or tucked away in a nice country pub vowing to never climb another mountain again, ever…….until next time.

Jack Green – Digital Marketing Apprentice

Jack was taken on as our Apprentice in February to support the marketing function and utilise his social media skills to build our presence, across different social media platforms.

Jack is a successful singer/songwriter from York and has a lot of experience in social media management with a combined online following of over 100,000 people, promoting his work. He used his social media skills to plan a six-date UK tour in February 2016, selling out two of the shows in Cardiff and Birmingham.

Jack is a nominee for the Best Young Breakthrough Act at the South East Entertainment Awards 2017 in recognition of his skills in using social media to develop a brand, promote a strong image and use online tools to target specific audiences directly.
